Global Rigid PU Catalyst Market 2024 by Manufacturers, Regions, Type and Application, Forecast to 2030

Global Rigid PU Catalyst Market 2024 by Manufacturers, Regions, Type and Application, Forecast to 2030

Polyurethane foams are produced by the reaction of polyol, polyisocyanate and water in the presence of catalysts and other auxiliary agents.

Catalysts play an important role not only in the control and balance between the gelling and blowing reactions, but also in the optimization of the foam properties and the curing speed during the foam formation. Tertiary amines either alone or in combination with tin octoate are most widely used catalysts in the manufacture of polyurethane foams.

Depending on their chemical structure they speed up the reaction between the hydroxyl and the isocyanate groups, accelerate the blowing reaction between isocyanate and water resulting in formation of CO2, or when blocked with carboxylic acids show delayed activity after being deblocked at elevated temperatures. Amine catalysts can accelerate the surface reaction speed and improve the surface properties of the finished goods by migrating to the foam mold surface. Those containing hydroxyl groups will react with the isocyanate groups becoming bonded to the polyurethane polymer matrix, which renders zero-emission of amine catalyst during the service life of the end product.

According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Rigid PU Catalyst market size was valued at US$ 511 million in 2023 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 772 million by 2030 with a CAGR of 6.2% during review period.

Polyurethane catalysts can be classified into two broad categories, basic and acidic amine. Tertiary amine catalysts function by enhancing the nucleophilicity of the diol component. Alkyl tin carboxylates, oxides and mercaptides oxides function as mild Lewis acids in accelerating the formation of polyurethane.Asia- Pacific to Witness Fastest Growth. The global focus of PU is currently on Asia-Pacific as well as the Southeast Asia countries. China, India, Thailand, and Vietnam are some of the key markets for PU due to their large population base and low per capita consumption of PU compared to developed countries, such as Germany or the United States. The growth of construction industry mainly in China, India and Brazil is expected to boost the demand for rigid polyurethane foams over the next decade.



Asia-Pacific is also the manufacturing and export hub for many products globally. Apart from footwear, some sectors, like the automotive industry in China and India, are among the largest in the world. The growing property market has also spurred the growth of the furniture and insulation industries, all of which rely heavily on PU as a key raw material.
